Google Crisis Maps

[SDCART1]

I participated in a webinar this week where they presented a Google Maps feature that covers a variety of natural disaster types of events.  I'm not sure if this is something that could be incorporated directly into MM, or if it would be just a good reference for teams.  Here is the link to the site, with the wildfires option selected.  If you zoom in on the fire in Banning, CA it gives the estimated fire perimeter.  There are lots of other options to play with as well.

If you move over to the fire in Ventura, not only does it show the fire perimeter, it also shows the evacuation order perimeter and that Pacific Coast Highway (a major evacuation corridor) is still open.

I've always like the Google Crisis Maps.  MM does support a lot of the same map feeds.  Floods, InciWeb, etc.  Adding the current fire lines has been on the todo list.  Give it a couple days and I'll see what I can do.  Thanks for the post.

Looks like its going to be a bad fire year for us in So Cal
